Yield Yak x Geode Finance x Eden Network team up to bring liquid staking to Avalanche

Introducing yyAVAX

TLDR:

  • Yield Yak will be launching yyAVAX, a new yield-bearing liquid staked version of AVAX which will unlock rewards currently reserved for AVAX staked on the Avalanche P-Chain
  • Geode will provide the trustless liquid staking product with dynamic withdrawals via Yield Yak’s user interface
  • Eden Network, core infrastructure specialists who redistribute miner extractable value on the Ethereum network, will run validators on the P-Chain and reward yyAVAX holders with additional yield generated from their operations, further boosting the yyAVAX value vs AVAX
  • Geode’s Avalanche Fuji Testnet launch is in progress. Contracts are currently under audit. Launch is being targeted in coming weeks with more details on yyAVAX utility still to come

How does it work for users?

Users will be able to deposit AVAX on Yield Yak and receive yyAVAX.

How it works: yyAVAX

What is Liquid Staking?

Currently, ~60% of all circulating AVAX is locked on the P-Chain which secures the Avalanche network. Validators and delegators earn AVAX rewards in exchange for staking (for a minimum of two weeks). AVAX on the P-Chain lacks any additional utility, as it cannot also be used on the C-Chain to take part in the burgeoning Avalanche ecosystem.

What’s Next?

Geode’s liquid staking product is currently in testing on Avalanche Fuji Testnet and an audit is already in progress with the yyAVAX launch date targeted in the coming weeks.
